Accomplished

Met with each member (except Hugo) for 1-on-1 design meetings with the intention to get everyone's opinion on where we stand, and to get everyone's voice heard and accounted for.
Through these discussions, we've come up with a seemingly strong direction to move forward with based around the concept of "Compromise".

For Tomorrow

Will meet with Hugo first thing in the morning to get his opinions on the multiple directions currently on the table, and then meet with the team to discuss where to go from here. Furthermore, should we stick to the "compromise" game, I will spend the day thinking of interesting mechanics, play-scenarios, emergent stories, and theme/narratives for the game.

Got a really simple prototype (mostly) working that allows multiple players to jointly arrange colored blocks in a common play space.

For Tomorrow

Make a more advanced prototype that allows the players to adjust size, shape, and/or color.
